Carving the Divine Buddhist Sculptors of Japan Alameda Sunday Apr 21 2:00pm       $20 - $40

Carving the Divine Buddhist Sculptors of Japan

Event starts in

23 Days 08 Hours 47 Minutes

An Award-Winning Film by Yujiro Seki Co-presented by the Buddhist Temple of Alameda “Carving the Divine” is a beautifully made documentary film that offers a rare look into the art of busshi, a 1400-year-old Buddhist woodcarving tradition, and the practitioners struggling to preserve its legacy in a rapidly changing Japan. “‘Carving the Divine’ is more than a movie about amazing wood sculptors of Japan. To me, the movie is about the Master-Apprentice, or the Master-Disciple relationship, and how this is still being transmitted in the traditional manner…..stern, but yet ultimately kind, in training the apprentice to be a true artist in both skill and spirit.” — Rev. Marvin Harada, Bishop, Buddhist Churches of America
